This Easy Maple Mustard Tempeh with Mushrooms is a quick, hearty, and flavorful vegan dish featuring tempeh and mushrooms coated in a tangy-sweet maple mustard sauce. Perfect for weeknight dinners or serving to guests.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2–3 servings

Ingredients

1 package (8 oz) tempeh

1 cup sliced mushrooms

23 tbsp olive oil

For the maple mustard sauce:

2 tbsp Dijon mustard

2 tbsp grainy mustard

2 tbsp pure maple syrup (or agave)

1/4 cup white wine (or apple cider vinegar)

1 tsp garlic salt

Instructions

  1. Slice the tempeh into thin strips or cubes.
  2. Heat 1–2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook tempeh until golden brown on both sides, 5–7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add remaining oil and sauté mushrooms until golden and tender.
  4. Whisk together Dijon mustard, grainy mustard, maple syrup, white wine (or apple cider vinegar), and garlic salt.
  5. Return tempeh to the skillet with mushrooms. Pour sauce over and stir.
  6. Simmer 3–5 minutes until sauce thickens and coats everything.
  7. Serve warm with rice, quinoa, or salad.

Notes

Add onions or bell peppers for extra vegetables.

Swap white wine with orange juice for a sweeter sauce.

Add chili paste or hot mustard for heat.

Include smoked paprika for a smoky twist.

Can bake instead of sautéing at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes.
